another nuance is that after Qf6 at 11:21

if e4-e5 hitting the queen , then Ng6xe5 wins because if fxe5 Qf2! :wink:

Thanks Katar and you are so right my sister. Thanks for watching and taking the time to drop me a line. What is your rating if I may ask?

Hey, nice video. I love your ultra-enthusiastic style, it really invigorates your presentation and makes it entertaining, even aside form the chess lessons. Like, 'not tomorrow, not today, no...ANYDAY!', lol.

I think these opening lessons are interesting but most people are also looking for general principles rather than specific opening tactics. Some of these powerful variations will occur maybe 1/1000 times, whereas a strongly reinforced principle of controlling white squares, exploiting passed pawns or understanding opposite coloured bishops are the type of lesson that is applicable in far more, say 1/10 games.

I would like to see your excellent instructive style expanded to mayeb some of your own games and demonstrations of how you thoguht about a position, what you could have done better and why.

Anyway, thanks for the great videos and keep it up.

[b]Mr. Phillips,
Your intellectual enthusiasm, concerning chess, and life in general, made this my favorite video lesson thus far. It is easy to see what a wonderful influence you are. The world would be a much better place, if everyone shared your spirated approach to chess, life, work, relationships etc..
Thank You PN

If everyone was that enthusiastic, then our good friend here Rene Phillips here wouldn't be so unique. And I think that would make the world a worse place. just food for thought.
